Hot off the press, Coros has just launched the Pace 3—the third generation model of the brand’s lightweight sport watch. The news follows a big firmware update last week, that brought turn-by-turn navigation to the Vertix 2 and some of its sibling watches.
The original Pace was released in 2018 and was the very first GPS watch from Coros. It’s amazing to see how far this California-based company has come in such a short time.

Of the numerous updates from the Pace 2, the improved GPS chipset is arguably the most impactful. We’ll dig more into the new features below, but take a look at the launch video for a quick overview.
Coros Pace 3 – New features
Next-generation GPS
A redesigned ‘all systems’ satellite chipset, with optional dual frequency, will keep your GPS data accurate, even in the most challenging circumstances—like high-rise cities or deep within the forest. Check out our Coros Vertix 2 review for more information about the benefits of using dual-frequency GPS.
Improved navigation
Go beyond your neighbourhood and run confidently with a suite of powerful tools, including breadcrumb navigation and turn-by-turn alerts.
Transreflective always on touchscreen display
Enhances visibility in bright sunlight, with an always on display and night mode for easy readability, even in the dark.
Go the distance and beyond
With a longer battery life of 38 hours of continuous GPS tracking or 24 days of continuous daily use, the Pace 3 maximises time on your wrist and minimises time spent charging.
Music playback
Download and playback MP3 music directly from your watch and listen on your Bluetooth headphones or speakers.
Next-gen optical heart rate sensor
Accurate heart rate data, sleep tracking, SpO2, and wear detection.
New activity modes
Hiking, trail running, ski, XC ski, and snowboard. The Coros Pace 3 provides an extensive range of activity modes that are optimised for accurate measurement.
Improved comfort
Super-light with a sleek body and weighing just 30g, the Pace 3 is made to be worn all day and night in completely distraction-free comfort.
